In the given question, the characteristics of an organism have been provided based on which the organism can be distinguished. The characteristics are:

1. Multicellular: Bacteria is unicellular therefore other options could be the answer.

2. Eukaryote: Protista is a eukaryotic organism but unicellular therefore the answer could be either plant or fungi.
